Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, prematurity, sepsis-meningitis, and serious forms of complex congenital heart disease requiring infant heart surgery are just a few examples of disorders that share high mortality and morbidity rates. Newborn heart surgery represents a period of planned and deliberate ischemia-reperfusion injury, which is obliged to occur to cure or palliate complex forms of congenital heart disease. Advances in cardiothoracic surgical and anesthetic techniques, including cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, have substantially decreased mortality, expanding the horizon to address functional neurologic and cardiac outcomes in long-term survivors. Interest in the functional status of survivors now stretches beyond the newborn period to childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.
